Aunt Mabel's Super Easy Gingerbread Cookies image

This was handed down by my great aunt. This is super easy and you can mix the dry ingredients and put them into a quart jar so they are ready when you want to make gingerbread; easy as a mix, and so much better. Whipped cream on each serving is a good addition.

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
